Mr.. Niswonger says:
A. McGregor being present and on
programme, l managed with him for a
half hour talk. He found no fault with
this. but had there been time he would
have prolonged his address. He talked
until he voluntarily quit, made bow
and retired to his seat.
Without wishing to find fault, Mr..
N. should have said, II limited him to
half hour"
Mr.. N. will also remember, no doubt,
that. during some applause he told Mr..
McGregor he would have to quit, when
the speaker said he would wind up
with a few closing words, which was
done.
OF course Mr.. McGregor cheerfully
obeyed orders, for he was invited, and
he had no wish to intrude, and makes
no complaint so far as he is concerned
